More than fifty percent of Gmail subscribers comes from Hotmail

A newly released study states that more than 50% of all new Gmail subscribers come from a Hotmail account.

Between 52 to 56 percent of customers switching to Gmail came from a Hotmail address each month, said Return Path. This compares to only 24 to 34 percent being from a Yahoo account. The rest of Return Path's clients were switching from MSN, AOL and Comcast, though at much smaller numbers.
